Appearances in Popular Culture
- The song was featured in a commercial for the 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse. In the commercial, a man (Kelvin Parker) is driving the Eclipse while a woman (Dusty Paik) dances to the beat of the song in the passenger seat.
- The Eclipse commercial was in turn parodied by a skit on Chappelle's Show in which Dave Chappelle is driving a car and the woman is dancing in the passenger seat. Dave says, "What the fuck are you doing?" (due to the weird moves she is making) and then leaves her by the side of the road. He then puts on some hip-hop music and a black woman sits in the passenger seat and starts dancing. Although this is a parody of the Eclipse commercial, the car actually used in the commercial was Dave's own Nissan 350Z.
- The song is featured in the rhythm game DDRMAX2 Dance Dance Revolution.
- This song also appears in the game Dance Central for the Kinect peripheral on the Xbox 360. The routine performed is similar to the one in the music video.
